The annoying thing about N26 is that the moment they send out a new MasterCard they kill the old one, so I'm without a working one in Madrid, leaving me only with two Visa and a Maestro

Room dark enough to watch correctly, but this is unacceptable light leakage for sleeping longer than 6:30

It's 19:40 I walked 18k steps and now I'm spent, in my hotel room on my tablet about to watch Doctor Who. No interruptions!

I took a shower and left the bath room door open so it's humid. Nose bleeding from the sub-30% humidity in Madrid.

Disney+ rebadged the Doctor Who special Church on Ruby Road as episode 1 of season 1 and hence episodes 1 and 2 as 2 and 3. Don't understand

English levels in Madrid are not really satisfactory so far.

Sometimes I think I should have a targeted approach to explore cities rather than just aimlessly walking around for hours and taking pictures of things that look interesting 🤔

Madrid really needs to work on their metro system. As soon as the doors open it stops showing you where it stopped, it only shows you while slowing down.

So if you don't notice until the doors open you are fucked.

I'll now start blocking the KeePassXC hate mob. We're all trying to do our best here and I don't need to constantly engage with new haters while trying to navigate a foreign cities metro system.

My hotel has CO2 monitor at the reception and 24/7 free: cold beverages, speciality coffee, and snacks. It's a mad world we live in.

It's a B Corp whatever that means

Feel like the oerson next to me in the metro is a pizza delivery person delivering pizza And drinks

It's crazy, young people in Madrid get up from their seat to give it up to old people. Wouldn't happen in Germany.

I just discovered chinotto and I'm going to say I don't like it.

Anyway yes I'm in Madrid, eating Italian. Sue me

Debian Users - Be aware the maintainer of the KeePassXC package for Debian has unilaterally decided to remove ALL features from it. You will need to switch to keepassxc-full to maintain capabilities once this lands outside of testing/sid.

@tuxwise @RLetot @keepassxc I was just being courteous, signing in on my phone and giving a short reply while travelling.

The concern is that somebody leaves or somebody new comes and picks up a subsystem and eventually maintains it on their own because the others don't actually use it and then believe the subsystem expert. That's somewhat normal.

This opens the doors for malicious actors to appear and compromise less popular subsystems.

1/2

juliank,

@tuxwise @RLetot @keepassxc Hence I did not want to expose new users to optional subsystem code by default. This seems a reasonable stance. It is what Debian users generally expect.

Sadly I could not do that without breaking some users existing functionality. I can add a debconf dialog on upgrades to tell you more explicitly.

I will have to think about how we can solve this better in the future for similar situations (upgraded get X, new gets Y), but this requires new apt features.

juliank,
@juliank@mastodon.social avatar

@tuxwise @RLetot @keepassxc We can also rename the existing package to KeePassXC-minimal and then remove the keepassxc package.

Then users will get a message from apt when doing install keepassxc that tells them it's provided by either.

But anyway I hope this longer explanation seems less rude to you, I had to sit down in the middle of a city trying to get it out on my phone.

@mvgorcum It's a question for the Debian project I polled other Debian developers on IRC. We already knew upstream's position on this.

Could I have communicated it to them? Sure. Did they abandon IRC years ago? Yes. Well there's some weird Heisenbridge thing but it's WEIRD and nobody has talked to me for years. 🤷‍♂️

I barely have the energy to package new versions, seeking out and engaging with upstream on these grounds on downstream decisions is a tad much.

@stardust @tuxwise @keepassxc That's a misunderstanding, they should read the release notes when upgrading to the next release

juliank,
@juliank@mastodon.social avatar

@keepassxc I think renaming the package to keepassxc-minimal will make it much clearer, and I'll try to do that and I hope it gets accepted.

I'm very torn on the upgrade path with a transitional keepassxc package, we can depend on keepassxc-minimal|keepassxc-full or the other way around.

Once we drop the transitional package is when things become nice: apt install keepassxc will tell you that there's a minimal and a full, and you can select it.
